Browns Pick #94, Dillon Gabriel QB, Oregon (aka, the Amari acquired pick)

This pick ensures that The Laptop remains defeated at picking QB's. The Gillberg of scouting QB's.

Look, I get the shit with Sanders and his ego. By the time this pick came out the kid was humbled, and it is an extra pick. So far you've been having a decent, if not pretty good draft. Take a flier with your extra 3rd rounder on Sanders and see if you've just pulled off a steal. He may fail, but he might succeed. This little Manlet is a permanent back up or 3rd stronger at best and you blew the pick anyways, so at least blow the pick on a high ceiling book or bust player.
 
Yep KoK. Agree agree.

Maybe there's more to the Sanders story than we know. It's the only reasonable explanation. Maybe he comes off as a total entitled asshole, but in this PC world, all anyone can say is "he's a fine young man".

I bet the Cowboys take a flyer on him.

Some of you need to seriously step off the ledge. He is hopefully a capable back-up to help us mitigate the salary cap hell they've created with the Watson trade.

Flacco is on a 1 year deal. Pickett has one year remaining on his rookie deal with a club option. Now we will have Gabriel on a rookie deal.

If he is capable (and I have no reason to believe he can't be): We will potentially go into next year with only Gabriel on the roster or Gabriel and Pickett. We draft our QBOTF in Rd1 and now we have 3 QB's on rookie contacts in the last year of Watson's salary cap created hell hit of $82M - which is now mitigated.

2026 potential:

QB1: Nuss, Cade, Allar
QB2: Pickett
QB3: Gabriel

FTR - I don’t love the Gabriel pick. But to make it make sense:
- Strongest arm at the combine (62 MPH)
- quick release- quick processor
- thrived in play-action
- mobile, moves well

Needs polish on reads & under center, but the raw tools are real. I'll take that as a back-up.

If you draft Sanders, you basically trap yourself. You can’t take a QB1 early in 2026 without facing major backlash from his dad, his team, and the media. You’d have to start him and ride it out for a couple years or deal with a circus. My guess? The Browns didn’t want that headache and they know next year’s draft has 3–4 QBs better than anyone in this class...which they positioned themself to attempt to get already.
 
After a night's rest and a heavy dose of copium, I can get behind this. IF his arm is adequate, this can work. 74.9 MPH throw at the Senior Bowl. One of the greatest college careers ever. There's a lot more to chew on than I initially thought.
 
This one looks like a carbon copy of DTR. But slightly shorter.
Can put plenty of mustard on his fastball. Has good mobility.
At least Berry did finally give up on DTR and let him go in a trade after he had his shot.
I'm expecting the same from this one.
Expected to step in when the starter is in the blue tent or in concussion protocol.
I don't believe DTR was ever really expected to be a starter.
 
there is one huge glaring difference between sanders and gabe, O-line and RB support.
gabe has all day back there and his RB ran for 1267 and 15 TD's. no one noticed this guys line?
both OT's were drafted with one in the 1st rd and the RB goes to the niners 5th rd!
peps say "watch the Michigan game!" just did and even their D couldnt beat that line. :ROFLMAO:

sorry Im calling this now, It looks like hes talked his way into the 3rd rd much like schwartz
did getting drafted by his combine time alone.peps raving about his interview? sh&t! he talks good?
"he's a lightning quick decision maker." no he aint, watch the tape.sanders offence is timing and rhythm.
these guys look like polar opposite style players. with blitzberg and baltimore? and our line? no contest.

The top offensive line class in the country, featuring a five-star and three more blue-chip recruits, belongs to Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks. Young offensive line coach Alique Terry looks like a star in the making with this group of trenchmen assembled, led by the nation's top interior offensive line recruit in Douglas Utu. The Las Vegas (Nev.) Bishop Gorman star is joined by his prep teammate and Under Armour All-American Alai Kalaniuvalu heading into college as a potential duo we see line up next to one another.

Yeah, there is really no way around this one, it was a garbage pick. The guy is a 7th round/UDFA caliber prospect. This pick screams Berry trying to buy time via the "well shucks fellas, let's develop this kid for a few years and see how it goes" route.

It is even worse of a pick when you look at the amount of high end WR, PT and OG prospects still on the board when this pick was made. Absolute horrendous.

The glaring stat is 5’11”!!!

AFC North is not a kind place for small players at any position.

I truly believe nothing this front office says.

We had some nice picks but prove me wrong on this.

We had nice picks, but how many QB's can you wiff on before the Ownership admits these clowns are clueless? Look at DePodesta and his laptops track record:

Wiffed on getting-
Patrick Mahomes(In fact he arrogantly stated Mahomes wasn't a 1st round prospect)
Baker Mayfield(This was all Dorsey, the reports of DePodesta jizzing himself over Darnold are well known. Traded Baker the first chance he got)

Busts-
Deshonne Kizer
Kenny Pickett(1st round bust, reclamation project)
DeRapist Watson(And wasted 5 years of draft picks on this piece of shit)
Rapeist Winston
Cody Kessler
RG3(Yet another bust turned reclamation project )
Tyrod Taylor
Jacoby Brissett
Dorian T Robinson
Dildo Gabriel

0-12, not a good look at all.
